Connecting the major cities of Tokyo and Osaka, the Tokaido Shinkansen is the busiest bullet train line in Japan. It opened in 1964 as the first bullet train line in Japan and also as the world’s first high speed railway line. Since then, it has come to represent modern Japan and signify qualities like speed, efficiency and reliability.
Navigating the process from purchasing tickets to riding on the bullet train can be overwhelming for some people, especially with all the different options available. In this video, we have broken down the process into simpler steps, and hopefully this will make it easier to understand how to take the Tokaido Shinkansen.
